Pros

There is no reason but desperation. I only picked this job after applying absolutely everywhere else I could possibly think of. As the employees are treated like mules, and thus quit fairly often (and abruptly), they are always hiring, and I was working within a few days.

Cons

No respect, dignity, or concept of a living wage. They also play favorites like you wouldn't even believe. The management is laughable, and is made up of not actual managers, but burger-flippers (like I was) who worked their way up through a few years of desperation and brown-nosing. Many of these people could barely even communicate intelligently in English, the only language they spoke, unless they happened to be Hispanic.

Pros

Experience varies heavily depending on the owner/operator you work for. Free and discounted food. 2 weeks PTO. Vision, Dental and Health insurance. Offers rapid development opportunities.

Cons

Work-life balance is nonexistent. In fact, the director of operations has stated numerous times, “Work life balance is a myth”. The company states you are required to work 45 hrs/week minimum; Realistically, GM’s can expect to work 55-60 hours in store with constant calls and messages when home. The company does not count any work done outside of the restaurant toward your 45hr requirement. There is no training for this position as you are expected to figure it out on the job. They offer $2000 per month performance bonus but are always finding new ways to disqualify you and move the goalposts when you actually earn it.
